well i fixed it. i was changing my coolant last night and while i had my lights shining on the engine i noticed the bolts holding down the intake manifold were raised up from the surface.....tightened them down good and tight, started up the truck, took on a nice long test drive. before doing so i reset the computer so the light was off. i went out and did a few WOT 0-60 runs, that went fine, then did a few 45-60 WOT pulls, then jumped on the highway and went from 45-95 WOT a few times......no CEL thrown up yet. plus its not struggling anymore. before it wouldnt even go that fast. so i think its fixed. sure seems to be. i feels pretty stupid. i had noticed those bolts looking loose many times before but just assumed there was a small washer or something under them. ugh....whatever. its fixed. and my coolant is clean! you should have seem what came out. omg
